Along the same lines as my last post and the proof-positive-that-wealth-and-priviledge-don’t-buy-class I present the the grand exit of Cynthia McKinney.

She did not exit gracefully.
And as usual she blamed her defeat on anyone but herself. And, …

Michelle Malkin of Hot Air gives a decent farewell to Cynthia McKinney.
You have got to watch this video and pay attention to the hamster music at the end as McKinney does the “electric slide” out of politics, hopefully forever this time.
…

This is an excruciating way to concede defeat……

You remember her father’s remark 4 years ago when she lost blaming the “J-E-W-S”?

Well watch this:

Cynthia’s BlackMuslim anti-Semites (video)

Didn’t mean to sound like I was chastising. I think I understand your position, just have a different take on it.

NO WORRIES, CENTURION68! :-D

My wife now refers to Michelle as “That Woman”.

As in “That Woman you like is on TV again”, when O’Reilly has Michelle on his show.

BTW:
Great Vent today, as always.

By the way, one correction for Michelle… The voters didn’t totally wise up there… she still received I think like 41% of the vote. 41% of the people in her district thought that someone who hits cops, has staffers that hit reporters, rolls with the new black panthers and other anti-semites as well as communist sympathizers, etc. etc. Basically to be part of McKinney’s group of friends you have to be one of the biggest a-holes in the country… but somehow 41% of the public in her district were stupid enough to vote for her.

I think liberals call that “diversity” .

So yeah, I won’t miss her either, but I think it’s quite possible she’ll join all the crazy conspiracy theory crowds, etc. and be all over the television.

False Dervish, I have noticed that the Hot Air Staff is on top of all comments. Just ask anybody that starts to show signs of becoming “unhinged” in their comments. Michelle and the gang are quick to slam them.

Truly, Rick! No arguement from me. :-)

And I noticed Sharpton and Jackson were mugging all over the place for the camera behind Lamont night last night, but were nowhere to be found in the McKinney fiasco.

Good observation. Even those two realized that the McKinney primary was a lost cause. My guess is that McKinney was getting too far out there for Jackson and Sharpton (not to mention she was losing any and all credibility with her constituents – it baffles me that she had any to begin with).

Ahhh, I love the smell of blog triumphalism in the morning.

It smells….like victory.

False Dervish, I’d like to be able to interact with the HotAir staff more also, but I imagine that they’re VERY busy. I’ve seen all three of them post a few times, but all in all I’d rather they spend their time investigating new issues, rather than commenting on old ones.

ABSOLUTELY, 100% CORRECT DALEWALT…AND CENTURION68! I was just wondering, that’s all.

It is more important for them to spend time doing their research. After all, there is a war on and there are enemies to defeat. And to maintain a site like this, they have to be very busy.

If we look at the different times new vents are posted, this tells me that a lot of acurate work and careful preparation is being done that prevents the following of an exact schedule.

I WAS NOT suggesting that they comment on OLD issues. After all, what would be accomplished by commenting on old issues (unless they reoccur)when time AND timely information is of the essence?
